Visualizaton at ATNF 2009

Welcome to the site for the astronomy visualization workshops to be held between Wednesday Feb 4/09 and Thursday Feb 5/09 at the Australia Telescope National Facility. Each session will begin with 1 practical talk. We will then finish up with a workshop where you actually make an image (Feb 4) or 3-D plot (Feb 5). Please bring your laptop. It is best to work in 2s or 3s so if you don't mind, please invite people who don't have laptops to create with you during the workshop component. Below are items you will need for this component.
